Dear Parents/Guardians:
After a consultative process with the Delta School District, and the International Baccalaureate World School Organization, a fee structure and payment protocol has been established for both incoming and returning students of English Bluff Elementary. The fee structure is implemented in order to meet the costs associated with being an IB World School. These costs include staffing, an expanded French program, association program fees, resource costs and the like.
APPLICATION FEE (New Registrations Only)
A $100.00 application fee is required for all new students entering the IB program at English Bluff (international students are also expected to pay an application fee through the International Programs Department). This application fee is due at the time of registration and is required to secure a place in the program. Should you make an application for your child and we are unable to accommodate that application (due to shortage of space, or other circumstances that may preclude admittance), then your $100 application fee will be refunded. However, should your child(ren) be offered a spot at English Bluff and the offer is declined for any reason; the application fee will not be refunded.
The first term fee payment is also due on the date of registration. Once a school term has begun, families will not be eligible to receive a refund in whole or in part for that term. However, families are entitled to full reimbursement of any paid term that has not yet commenced.
FEE STRUCTURE
All fees are based on a 10-month cycle (September-June) and can be paid either in a one lump sum payment or three scheduled instalments.
